Abstract (en)

The present invention provides primer or/and probe, this target sequence containing at least one variation, defined as either one non-conserved nucleotide, called genotype variation, or one nucleotide variation within one and the same genotype, wherein the primer or/and probe comprises a nucleic acid sequence that is complementary to said target sequence except for the at least complementary base of the variation(s), which is not present in the primer or/and probe. The present invention is especially useful in methods for diagnostic, preventive and therapeutic applications.
